Inspire’s Phantom of the Opera

This full length classic musical composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Charles Hart tells the chilling story of love, mystery, and mourning. Christine Daae is a young ingenue who has just claimed her role as the leading lady in the Paris Opera house but is met by a masked musical genius who is haunting the theater, The Phantom. This murderous figure falls madly in love with Christine but must face off with her childhood best friend, Raoul. Tensions rise between the three and The Phantom continues to reign terror as his fractured mind takes over, however, the show must go on. Outraged by Raoul and Christine’s relationship, he begins to pick off the cast one by one plaguing the theater with death. Driving the couple insane, The Phantom finally gives up on his violent act insisting they leave before it is too late.
